Oregon State Dept. of Human Resources, Salem.

This pamphlet, addressed to employers in Oregon, emphasizes the necessity of high school students finishing school. It suggests ways that employers can facilitate student employees' education by encouraging them to remain in school, rewarding good school performance, and setting up realistic schedules that minimize conflicts with school. The pamphlet suggests that employers can help prevent students from dropping out of school and thus ensure an educated work force for the future. The pamphlet includes a sample of clear expectations to ensure success with students in hiring, on the job, and at termination of employment. A sample student work agreement and a hiring pledge are provided. (KC)
